Shawl, 'Cocoa Harvest'

Woven in a delicious shade of brown, this shawl is inspired by the cocoa beans that are harvested in Guatemala. The open weave of the rayon shawl is achieved on a backstrap loom along with a tighter weave at the borders. From Nu'Kem Association of Textile Artisans, this section of the shawl is decorated with images of opened cocoa beans.
